I have installed GNU/Linux Ubuntu on the PC of one of the senior science writers. He was using Windows earlier. Now he is facing some problems
using
a feature of Windows Character Map, wherein he could assign a key to type particular alphabet in Shusha Font.
He uses OpenOffice to type his article in Hindi.
If I failed to help him out he might go back to Windows which I don't
want
and which will discourage others to take Linux. Could someone please help?
System>>Administration>>Language Support.Enable Hindi.The phonetic type of input should allow him to learn how to type in Hindi easily.
